As ABC’s Chief Medical Correspondent, as well as a columnist for Cosmopolitan magazine, Dr. Jennifer Ashton has been using her platform, on a daily basis, to encourage everybody to get the flu shot.

However the flu shot didn’t help her daughter, who was hospitalized shortly after receiving the vaccine.

Posting on Twitter, Dr. Jennifer Ashton thanked the “amazing nurses & doctors” for taking care of her daughter. However she didn’t stop to question why her daughter came down with the flu after being immunized – or whether the flu shot could have been the cause of the virus.

Huge thanks to the amazing nurses & doctors @englewoodhosp for taking such great care of my daughter today who has #flu. She needed 2 liters of IV fluids before her HR returned to normal. Take dehydration w flu seriously.
